TJ, and cathunt, , I had the same snapring come off on my new Warn hub. I posted on another thread with more details. It happened twice on the same side, and twice i put it back together. Now, i also swapped sides, and also greased the axle shaft up good, and now it is staying put. I do not know exactly went wrong on mine, but so far, so good. Warn gave me a list of things to check, like wheel bearings, driveshaft joints, and needle bearings, but i am pretty sure all this is OK on my truck.

What did you learn about the cause for your problems, or, how did it get solved?
